Abstract

An apparatus and method is provided for single transfer insert placement. The apparatus receives continuous web material and cuts a discrete section ox pad from the web. The pad is then supported on a single transfer surface. The single transfer surface then may spin the supported pad to a desired angle and provide the pad to a receiving surface at a desired interval.
